Job 17 Cross References - ECB

¹ My spirit is despoiled; my days extinct; the tombs are for me. ² If not, mockeries are with me and my eye is stayed in their rebelling? ³ I beseech, Set my pledge with you. Who is he who claps hands with me? ⁴ For you hide their heart from comprehension; so you exalt them not. ⁵ He who tells his friends - smoothing it over, even the eyes of his children are finished off. ⁶ and he sets me - a proverb of the people; at whose face I am as spit; ⁷ and my eye is dim of vexation and all my forms as a shadow; ⁸ the straight astonish at this and the innocent waken against the profaner; ⁹ and the just holds his way; and in strengthening, he who has pure hands, strengthens. ¹⁰ But as for you all, return and come, I beseech; for I find none wise among you. ¹¹ My days pass my intrigues are torn - the possessions of my heart. ¹² They set the night into day; the light is near the face of the darkness. ¹³ If I await, sheol is my house; I spread my bed in the darkness. ¹⁴ I call out to the pit of ruin, My father; to the maggot, My mother! My sister! ¹⁵ And where is my hope now? As for my hope, who observes? ¹⁶ They descend to the veins of sheol, we rest together in the dust.

¹¹ What is my force, that I await? What is my end, that I prolong my soul?

¹³ If I await, sheol is my house; I spread my bed in the darkness. ¹⁴ I call out to the pit of ruin, My father; to the maggot, My mother! My sister!

¹⁷ my spirit is strange to my woman and my charism to the sons of my belly:

¹⁶ After this Iyob lives a hundred and forty years and sees his sons and the sons of his sons - four generations.

³ for my soul satiates with evil and my life touches to sheol: ⁴ I am fabricated with them descending the well; I - a mighty having no might; ⁵ liberated among the dead as pierced lying in the tomb whom you remember no more: and they are cut off from your hand.

¹⁰ I - I say, in the severing of my days, I go to the portals of sheol: I overlooked the remnant of my years. ¹¹ I say, I see not Yah - Yah in the land of the living: I scan humanity no more with the settlers of the deceased. ¹² My generation pulls stakes and exiles from me as the tent of a tender: my life - severed as a weaver: he clips me from the thrum: from day to night you shalam me: ¹³ I equate until morning; as a lion, thus he breaks all my bones: from day to night you shalam me. ¹⁴ As a horse or a swallow, thus I chirp: I coo as a dove: my eyes languish on high: O Yah Veh, I am oppressed; be my pledge.

¹⁶ For I neither contend eternally nor perpetually rage: for the spirit languishes at my face, and the breaths I work.

⁶ and her tribulation also vexes her to vexation to irritate her; because Yah Veh shut her womb. ⁷ And thus he works year by year, as she ascends often enough to the house of Yah Veh, thus she is vexed; and she weeps, and eats not.

⁴ I am as one ridiculed by his friend, who calls on Elohah and he answers him; he ridicules the just, the integrious.

⁹ Is it good that he probe you? As one mocks a man, mock you him?

²⁰ My friends scorn me; but my eye drips to Elohah.

³ Allow me to word; and after I word, deride.

¹³ His soul stays in goodness; and his seed possesses the earth:

¹⁴ I walk as a friend or brother; I prostrate darkened, as one mourns for a mother. ¹⁵ And in my limping they cheer and gather together; the smiters gather against me and I know it not; they rip and hush not. ¹⁶ With profaners, jeerers at bakings, they gnash on me with their teeth.

¹ He who settles in the covert of Elyon stays under the shadow of Shadday.

³⁹ And those passing by blaspheme him, wagging their heads ⁴⁰ and wording, You who disintegrates the nave and builds it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of Elohim, descend from the stake! ⁴¹ Likewise also the archpriests with the scribes and elders mock him, wording, ⁴² He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the sovereign of Yisra El, have him now descend from the stake; and we trust in him. ⁴³ He confides in Elohim; have him rescue him now - if he wills: for he says, I am the Son of Elohim. ⁴⁴ - the thieves staked with him also reproach him.

⁹ I - I pledge for him; you require him from my hand if I bring him not to you and set him facing you - then I have sinned against you all days:

³² For your servant pledged for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to you, then I have sinned against my father all days.

³³ There is no reprover between us to place his hand on us both.

¹²² pledge for your servant for good; that the arrogant not oppress me:

¹¹ thus comes your poverty - as one who walks and your lack - as a man with buckler.

¹⁵ He who pledges for a stranger, shouts evil; and he who hates to clap is confident.

¹⁸ A human who lacks heart claps palms; and becomes a pledge at the face of his friend.

¹⁶ Take his clothes, who pledges for a stranger; and pledge him for a stranger.

²⁶ Be not of them who clap palms, or of them who pledge for loans.

¹⁴ As a horse or a swallow, thus I chirp: I coo as a dove: my eyes languish on high: O Yah Veh, I am oppressed; be my pledge.

²² Yah Shua became a pledge by a much better covenant:

³¹ And one tells David, saying, Achiy Thophel is among the conspirators with Abi Shalom. And David says, O Yah Veh, I pray you, in follying, folly the counsel of Achiy Thophel.

¹⁴ And Abi Shalom and all the men of Yisra El say, The counsel of Hushay the Arkiy is better than the counsel of Achiy Thophel: and Yah Veh misvahs to break down the good counsel of Achiy Thophel, so that Yah Veh brings evil on Abi Shalom.

¹⁶ And so be it, as he words with him, he says to him, Who gives you to be counsellor to the sovereign? Cease! Why be smitten? Then the prophet ceases and says, I know Elohim counsels to ruin, because you work this and hearken not to my counsel.

¹⁴ Yah Veh mixes a spirit of perversities in their midst: and they stray Misrayim in every work as an intoxicate staggering in his vomit;

²⁵
YAH SHUA HOMOLOGIZES THE FATHER
At that season, Yah Shua answers, saying, I confess you, O Father, Adonay of the heavens and the earth, because you secrete these from the wise and comprehending and unveil them to babes.

¹¹ He answers them, saying, Because you are given to know the mysteries of the sovereigndom of the heavens; but they are not given:

⁸ Exactly as scribed, Elohim gives them the spirit of insensitivity, eyes that they see not and ears that they hear not - to this day today. ^{Isaiah 29:10}

²⁰ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this eon? Elohim indeed, follies he not the wisdom of this cosmos?

⁵ neither prostrate yourself to them, nor serve them: for I Yah Veh your Elohim am a jealous El, visiting the perversity of the fathers on the sons to the third and fourth of them who hate me;

⁶⁵ And among these goyim you neither blink nor rest the sole of your foot: and there Yah Veh gives you a quivering heart and failing of eyes and sorrow of soul:

¹² only, I work it not in your days for sake of David your father: but I rip it from the hand of your son:

²⁰ And the eyes of the wicked finish off and flight destructs from them and their hope is as the expiration of the soul.

²¹ I beseech you, that I neither lift the face of humanity, nor give honorary degrees to humanity: ²² for I know not to give honorary degrees; in so doing my Worker shortly lifts me away.

² Every man words vanity with his friend; with lips that smooth it over they word heart to heart. ³ Yah Veh cuts off all lips that smooth it over and the tongue that words greatnesses:

¹⁹ A talebearer exposes private counsel; meddle not with him who entices with his lips.

⁵ A mighty who smoothes over his friend spreads a net for his steps.

¹⁷ As for us, our eyes as yet are finished off for our vain help: in our watching, we watched for a goyim that saves not:

⁵ For we never ever became in fawning words exactly as you know; nor in a pretext of avarice; as Elohim witnesses:

²⁷ Why hide you to flee and steal from me - and not tell me - and I send you with cheerfulness and with songs, with tambourine and with harp?

⁷ then I cut Yisra El from the face of the soil I gave them; and this house I hallowed for my name, I send from my face; and Yisra El becomes a proverb and gibe among all people:

⁹ and now I am their strummer; yes, I am their utterance.

¹⁴ you set us a proverb among the goyim - a shaking of the head among the nations:

¹² and the harp and the bagpipe, the tambourine and pipe and wine are in their banquets: yes, they neither scan the deeds of Yah Veh nor see the work of his hands.

⁸ you pluck me for a witness; my emaciation rises within me and answers to my face:

¹⁶ my face foams with weeping and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;

⁷ my eye is motheaten in vexation - antiquates because of all my tribulators.

⁹ grant me charism, O Yah Veh, for I tribulate; my eye, my soul and my belly are motheaten with vexation. ¹⁰ For my life is finished off with grief and my years with sighing; my force falters because of my perversity and my bones are motheaten.

²³ - gone - spread as the shadow - shaken as the locust:

¹² For who knows what is good for humanity in life - the number of the days of his life of vanity which he works as a shadow? Who tells humanity what is after him under the sun?

¹⁷ For this our heart bleeds; for these our eyes darken.

¹⁹ the just see and cheer; and the innocent deride.

³⁰ from the reign of the profaner of humanity, lest the people be ensnared.

¹² Behold, these are the wicked, - eternally serene who increase in valuables. ¹³ Surely I purify my heart in vain and wash my palms in innocency. ¹⁴ For all the day long I am touched and reproofed in the morning. ¹⁵ If I say, I scribe thus; behold, I deal covertly with the generation of your sons:

⁸ If you see the oppression of the impoverished and stripping of judgment and justness in a jurisdiction, marvel not at the desire; for he who is high above the high regards - and then the high above them.

¹³ - eyes, purer than to see evil, that cannot look on toil: Why look on them who deal covertly? And hush when the wicked swallow him who is more just?

⁴⁶
PAULOS AND BAR NABI TURN TO THE GOYIM
And Paulos and Bar Nabi embolden, and say, It is necessary that the word of Elohim be spoken to you first: but since you shove it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the goyim:

³³ O the depth of the riches of both the wisdom and knowledge of Elohim! How unexplorable his judgments and his ways untraceable!

⁵ Says he not to me, She is my sister? and she - even she herself says, He is my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my palms worked I this.

³⁰ he rescues the island of the innocent; it escapes by the purity of your palms.

⁴ He who has innocent palms and a pure heart; - who neither lifts his soul to vanity nor oaths deceitfully:

⁶ I wash my palms in innocency; I surround your sacrifice altar, O Yah Veh:

¹³ Surely I purify my heart in vain and wash my palms in innocency.

⁷ They go from valour to valour - seen by Elohim in Siyon.

¹¹ For Yah Veh Elohim is a sun and shield; Yah Veh grants charism and honor; he withholds no good from them who walk integriously.

¹⁸ And the path of the just is as the brilliant light that goes and lights more and more to establish the day.

¹⁶ The wise awes and turns aside from evil; and the fool passes on, confident.

¹⁵ And in spreading your palms, I conceal my eyes from you: yes, your abounding prayers I hear not: your hands are filled with blood. ¹⁶ Baptize yourself; purify yourself; turn aside the evil of your exploitations from in front of my eyes: cease to vilify;

⁸ And there becomes a highway, and a way; and it is called The way of holiness; the foul pass not over; and it is for them - waywalkers; even fools err not. ⁹ No lion is there; a ravenous live being ascends not thereon; it is not found therein; and the redeemed walk therein: ¹⁰ and the redeemed of Yah Veh return and come to Siyon with shouting and eternal cheerfulness on their heads: they attain rejoicing and cheerfulness, and grief and sighing flee away.

²⁹ He gives strength to the weary; and to them of no strength, he abounds might. ³⁰ Even the lads weary and belabor, and in faltering, the youths falter: ³¹ but they who await Yah Veh, change their force; they ascend with pinions as eagles; they run, and belabor not; and they walk, and weary not.

² and they see some of his disciples eat bread with profane, that is, unwashed hands, and they find fault:

⁹ And he said to me, My charism is sufficient for you: for my dynamis is completed/shalamed in frailty. So rather, with pleasure I boast in my frailties, that the dynamis of the Messiah tabernacle upon me. ¹⁰ So I well-approve in frailties, in hubris, in compulsions, in persecutions, in distresses for sake of Messiah: for when I am frail, then I am able.

⁵ who are garrisoned in the dynamis of Elohim through trust to salvation - prepared to be unveiled in the final season:

¹⁹ They went from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us they had ever abode with us: but they manifested they were not all of us.

²⁹ Return, I beseech you, that it not be wickedness; yes, return, my justness is in it.

² Truly you are the people; and with you, wisdom dies.

⁹ What know you, that we know not? - what discern you, that is not in us?

⁴ For you hide their heart from comprehension; so you exalt them not.

⁹ Neither the great enwisen nor the aged discern judgment.

⁷
YAH VEH ANSWERS ELI PHAZ
And so be it, after Yah Veh words these words to Iyob, Yah Veh says to Eli Phaz the Temaniy, I kindle my wrath against you and against your two friends; for you word not of me what is established - as my servant Iyob.

¹⁸ and you return and see between the just and the wicked, between him who serves Elohim and between him who serves him not.

⁵ I word to shame you. Is it thus, that there are no wise among you? - not even one able to discern among his brothers?

⁶ my days are swifter than a weaver - finished off without hope.

²⁵ My days are swifter than a runner; they flee away; they see no good; ²⁶ they pass away as the ships of yearning - as the eagle pounces for food.

⁹ The human heart fabricates his way; and Yah Veh establishes his pace.

²¹ Many are the fabrications in the heart of man; nevertheless the counsel of Yah Veh rises.

¹⁰ Whatever your hand finds to work, work with your force; for there is no work, or machination, or knowledge, or wisdom in sheol, where you go.

¹⁰ in counselling, counsel; and it breaks; word the word, and it rises not: for El is with us.

¹⁰ I - I say, in the severing of my days, I go to the portals of sheol: I overlooked the remnant of my years.

³⁷ Who is this - who says, and it becomes and Adonay commands not?

¹³ And I will that you not be unknowing, brothers, that I often predetermined to come to you; - but was forbidden until now that I also have some fruit among you, exactly as among the rest of the goyim.

¹⁵
THE ALTERED TRAVEL PLANS OF PAULOS
And in this confidence I willed to come to you previously, so that you have a second charism; ¹⁶ and to pass through you into Macedonia and to come again to you from Macedonia and to be forwarded by you to Yah Hudah. ¹⁷
THE YES OF ELOHIM
So counseling thus, use I levity? Or those I counsel, counsel I according to the flesh - so that with me there is Yes yes and No no?

¹³ Come now, you who word, Today or tomorrow we go to such a city and deal one year and merchandise and gain: ¹⁴ whereas you understand not the morrow. For what is your life? It is indeed a vapour - manifests for a little - and then disappears. ¹⁵ Instead word thus, Whenever Adonay wills, we live and do this or that.

⁶⁷ in the morning you say, O to give that it become evening! and at evening you say, O to give that it become morning! - for the fear of your heart that you fear and for the vision of your eyes that you see.

³ thus I inherit moons of vanity and nights of toil are numbered to me. ⁴ I lie down and I say, When do I arise? and the evening flies away and I am satiated by tossings to and fro until the evening breeze.

¹³ When I say, My bedstead sighs for me, my bed lifts my meditation; ¹⁴ and you terrify me with dreams and frighten me through visions;

¹⁴ The murderer rising with the light severs the humble and needy as a thief in the night: ¹⁵ the eye of the adulterer guards for the evening breeze, saying, No eye observes me! - and covertly sets his face. ¹⁶ In the dark they dig through houses which they sealed for themselves in the day; they know not the light;

¹³ For now I lie down and rest; had I slept, then had I been at rest,

²¹ - ere I go and not return to the land of darkness and the shadow of death; ²² - a land of darkness as darkness; of the shadow of death without any order where the shining is as darkness.

¹⁴ If the mighty die, enlivens he? All the days of my hostility, I wait - until my change comes.

¹ My spirit is despoiled; my days extinct; the tombs are for me.

²³ For I know that you return me to death and to the house of the congregation of all the living.

¹⁴ Await Yah Veh! Prevail; and he strengthens your heart; yes, await Yah Veh.

⁸ If I ascend into the heavens, you are there; if I bed down in sheol, behold - you;

² He enters into shalom; they rest in their beds - each walking in straightforwardness.

²⁵ Yah Veh is good to them who await him - to the soul who seeks him: ²⁶ - good to await - to silently await the salvation of Yah Veh.

²⁸ and as rotteness he wears out as moth eaten clothing.

²⁶ and after my skin becomes stricken, yet in my flesh I see Elohah

²⁶ Together they lie in the dust; the maggots cover them.

³² Yet he - he is brought to the tomb and watches in the heap: ³³ the clods of the wadi sweeten to him and he draws all humanity after him - innumerable at his face.

²⁰ the womb forgets him; the maggot sucks him; - remembered no more: and wickedness breaks as a tree.

³⁰ My skin blackens on me; my bones scorch with parch.

¹⁰ For you neither forsake my soul in sheol; nor give your Mercied One to see the pit of ruin:

⁹ and still he lives in perpetuity and sees not the pit of ruin.

¹¹ Your pomp is brought down to sheol with the sound of your bagpipes: the maggot spreads under you and the maggots cover you.

²⁷ because you neither leave my soul in sheol/hades nor give your Merciful to see corruption: ²⁸ You make known to me the ways of life; you fill full/shalam me with rejoicing with your face. ^{Psalm 16:8-11 29} Men and brothers, allow me to boldly say to you concerning the patriarch David - that he is both dead and entombed and his tomb is with us to this day. ³⁰ So being a prophet and knowing that Elohim oathed an oath to him that, of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he raises the Messiah to sit on his throne: ³¹ foreseeing this, he speaks of the resurrection of the Messiah, that neither his soul is left in sheol/hades, nor his flesh sees corruption:

³⁴ And that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he says thus, I give you the trustworthy mercifuls of David. ^{Isaiah 55:3 35} Wherefore he also words in another, You give not your Merciful to see corruption. ^{Psalm 16:10 36} For David indeed, after he tended his own generation by the counsel of Elohim, fell on sleep; and was added to his fathers and saw corruption: ³⁷ but he, whom Elohim raised, saw no corruption.

⁴² Thus also the resurrection of the dead: spored in corruption; raised in incorruption:

⁵³ For this corruptible must endue athanasia; and this mortal must endue immortality. ⁵⁴ So when this corruptible endues incorruptibility and this mortal endues athanasia - then becomes the word that is scribed, Death is swallowed in triumph. ^{Isaiah 25:8}

⁶ Is not this your awe, your confidence, your hope and the integrity of your ways?

¹⁵ Behold, he severs me, yet I await not; surely I reprove my own ways at his face.

¹⁰ he pulls me down all around, and I go; and he plucks my hope as a tree:

¹⁷ There the wicked cease from commotion; and there the wearied of force rest; ¹⁸ there the bound relax together; they hear not the voice of the exactor; ¹⁹ the small and great are there; and the servant is liberated from his adoni.

¹³ It devours the strength of his veins - the firstbirthed of death devours his veins. ¹⁴ His confidence is torn from his tent and paces him to the sovereign of terrors.

¹⁸ he spares his soul from the pit of ruin and his life from the passing of the spear; ¹⁹ he is also reproved with sorrow on his bed and the strife of his bones is perennial; ²⁰ his life loathes bread and his soul food of desire; ²¹ his flesh finishes off that it not be seen; and his bones that have not been seen be exposed. ²² Yes, his soul draws near to the pit of ruin and his life to the deathifiers. ²³ If there is an angel with him an interpreter - one among a thousand to tell humanity his straightness, ²⁴ then he grants him charism and says, Rescue him from descending to the pit of ruin; I have found a koper/an atonement. ²⁵ His flesh rejuvinates as ladhood; he returns to the days of his youth; ²⁶ he intreats Elohah and pleases him; he sees his face with shouting; for he restores his justness to man. ²⁷ He observes men, and if any say, I sinned and perverted the straight and it profits me not; ²⁸ he redeems my soul from passing into the pit of ruin and my life sees the light.

⁴ I am fabricated with them descending the well; I - a mighty having no might; ⁵ liberated among the dead as pierced lying in the tomb whom you remember no more: and they are cut off from your hand. ⁶ You place me in the nethermost well - in darkness - in the deeps: ⁷ your fury props on me and you humble me with all your waves. Selah. ⁸ You far removed them whom I know; you place me an abhorrence to them - restrained - I come not forth:

⁷ Answer me hastily, O Yah Veh; my spirit finishes off: hide not your face from me; lest I be as they who descend in the well:

¹⁷ Behold, for shalom I was bitterly embittered: and you attached to my soul from the pit of ruin: for you cast all my sins behind your back. ¹⁸ For neither sheol spreads hands to you, nor death halals you: they who descend into the well expect not your truth.

¹¹
THE INTERPRETATION
And he says to me, Son of humanity, these bones are the whole house of Yisra El: behold, they say, Our bones withers and our hope destructs: we are cut off for our parts.

⁶ I descend to the bases of the mountains; the earth with her bars around me eternally: yet you ascend my life from the pit of ruin, O Yah Veh my Elohim.

⁹ but we ourselves had the sentence of death in ourselves so that we confided not in ourselves - but in Elohim who raised the dead:
